Summary
Following on from The Magician’s Nephew and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, this is a classic fantasy adventure from The Chronicles of Narnia.
Desperate to escape a harsh and narrow regime, two runaways unwittingly flee headlong into the centre of a terrible battle. This first sequel to The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe includes all the hallmarks of its famous predecessor, though this time the fate of Narnia is wound up in the lives of its own children – and a talking horse!
On 9 December 2005, Andrew (Shrek) Adamson’s live-action film adaptation of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe will be released by Disney, and it is already being hailed as the biggest film franchise of all time, guaranteed to appeal to adults and children across the globe. The second film is already in development.
“When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness.” C S Lewis

delighted
very unique, good description, and the narrator really brings the story to life. I feel as if I were actually there, at the scene, watching and observing. Overall, I give it 5/5. It's definitely worth the money or credits.

Horse and his Boy My favourite CS Lewis book
AS always great story and adventure of Narnian tales. All are standalone stories or can be read in conjunction with the rest in the series. Very easy read. I prefer the audio books as I usually listen whilst travelling and cannot read and travel whatever vehicle I travel in, usually by train.

Probably enjoyed more by its target audience
Find myself agreeing with other reviewers . It is Alex Jennings masterly reading that makes this story so satisfying. Had I read this as a much younger person I would have loved it. For me it was too predictable and lacked the passion of The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe . For all that I did enjoy it and appreciate the way that Lewis addressed his readership.

Chronicles of Narnia: Part 3
I have loved these stories since I first read them in 1975. Now hearing them read aloud enables me to enjoy them afresh, and from a different perspective. Great story, wonderful narrator. I would recommend these stories to anyone, adult or child.
